Following the not so different trend of holiday events, Steam is once again back with its discount event. Dubbed ‘Winter Sale’ the event will give discounted pricing on a lot of premium titles of the year.

Apart from the discounts, this year’s Winter Sale will also mark the first edition of Steam Awards. It has 12 categories, where Steam users can vote each day on a unique one. Yesterday’s category was “Villain Most in Need of a Hug”, with the finalists being Borderlands 2, Dead by Daylight, Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4 and Portal 2.

The winners would be announced by Valve on New Year’s eve.

Valve recently initiated cash on delivery, digital payments and net banking options for their consumers in India, in association with Nova Play. This might just be the opportunity that Indian gamers have been looking for and the timing being right around the sale adds up to it.
